Photo from chef Tomás Rocha

A product-led chef creating honest, bold and deeply personal experiences around the table.

Tomás Rocha trained in culinary arts at the Escola de Hotelaria do Estoril, built his foundation through restaurant and hotel kitchens, then refined his path at Tartar-ia and later at A Cevicheria in Lisbon. After working in Nice, where he found inspiration in the spirit of great French bistros, he returned to Lisbon to co-create Bichomau — a restaurant shaped by seasonality, product and an intimate, character-driven approach to dining.

More about me

For me, cooking is...

A way of expressing identity, emotion and seasonality through honest food, strong product and meaningful moments around the table.

I learned to cook at...

Escola de Hotelaria do Estoril, later refining my path through restaurant and hotel kitchens, Tartar-ia, A Cevicheria and Nice.

A cooking secret...

Letting great ingredients speak, while bringing precision, instinct and just enough edge to make them memorable.
